Property description

Step back in time with this charming mid-century master house located in the heart of the Cathar Country, in the picturesque town of Quillan. Its unique style is sure to captivate those with an appreciation for its distinctive charm. Built in the 1950s, this property features a grand, cubical structure with multiple floors, elegant symmetry on the facades, large windows for abundant natural light, high ceilings, spacious rooms, a beautiful interior staircase, a multi-pitched roof with charming details, and decorative elements such as an ox-eye window and wrought iron balconettes. This home embodies the character and charm of a bygone era. With approximately 134 sqm of living space, spread mainly across the first and second floors, this charming house offers plenty of room for comfortable living. The ground floor includes a spacious garage of about 60 sqm and a laundry room. While the garage currently does not have internal access to the house, there is potential to create a service staircase, as a space has been allocated for that purpose. This possibility allows for flexible customization to meet various needs. The living spaces are located on the first floor, accessible via an external staircase. Upon entering, you will find a corridor leading to a spacious kitchen of about 16 sqm, with a small balcony offering picturesque views of the town's bell tower and the mountains. Adjacent to the kitchen, a utility room of about 4 sqm provides practical storage and a WC. Continuing the tour, an elegant living/dining room occupies the space with large French doors flooding the room with natural light. The focal point of the house, the solid wood staircase, gracefully leads you to the second floor. Here, you will find three spacious bedrooms, a bathroom, and a room that can be converted into a dressing room or an additional bathroom. While there is access to the attic, it is not suitable for conversion. The traditional timber frame occupies the space generously, and the ceiling height is not sufficient for standing comfortably. In terms of renovations, there are improvements to be made to enhance the living space. Although the windows on the second floor are elegant, replacing them could improve thermal efficiency. Similarly, modernizing parts of the electrical system and giving the interior a fresh update could breathe new life into the house, highlighting its unique features. Fortunately, heating is already provided by a very recent city gas boiler, which is a comfort and energy efficiency advantage. Externally, despite the lack of a garden, this house boasts a balcony, significantly reducing the need for outdoor maintenance. Its prime location makes it an ideal option for a family or even a bed and breakfast business. Within walking distance of the town center, shops, activities, markets, schools, and colleges, it is both convenient and peaceful. Accessibility to all amenities makes daily life easier and more enjoyable, enhancing the appeal of this charming residence. Quillan, this lively little town, offers a delightful living environment. You will be close to a variety of remarkable sites, allowing you to indulge in a range of tourist and cultural activities, such as the Cathar Castles, the Pierre Lys Gorges, and the St Georges Gorges. For outdoor enthusiasts, the surrounding nature provides ample opportunities for various sports activities, including white water sports, climbing, fishing, mountain biking, trail running, and hiking. You can even cool off with a swim at the leisure park St Bertrand, which features a swimming lake and a fishing lake. Quillan is a paradise for those seeking a balanced life between cultural exploration and outdoor adventures. Strategically located, this charming home is only 40 minutes from Carcassonne with its airport and famous medieval citadel. Additionally, you are an hour away from Perpignan and the sunny beaches of the Mediterranean. If the mountains call to you, ski resorts are also within an hour's drive. This ideal location offers easy access to a range of experiences, whether it's exploring historical richness, relaxing by the sea, or enjoying snowy mountains. A location that greatly expands the possibilities for adventures and exploration at your fingertips. Come discover it quickly!
